Sugar House Streetcar Takes Shape

For many years, the Sugar House Streetcar has been a dream shared by many.

Construction began with a groundbreaking ceremony in May 2012, and since then great progress has been made to bring the streetcar back to Salt Lake City.

This spring finds construction beginning on the Greenway, the 2 mile park that will run parallel to the streetcar line. The greenway is planned to include plazas, Parley’s Trail and extensive landscaping that will enhance the area and draw residents on foot and two wheels.

As the streetcar comes to life, Sugar House itself is experiencing a resurgence in development. With over 1,000 new housing units planned and private investment topping over $400 million, a neighborhood rejuvenation is underway.
